    cost per units $311.37

    Total cost of 21000 units is $6,538,730.00

    Explanation:

    The total costs next month are analyzed as follows:

    unit cost is shown thus:

    $

    indirect material cost ($1,006,000/15000) 67.07

    direct labor ($2,089,000/15000) 139.27

    indirect materials ($233,000/15000) 15.53

    power (214,000/15000) 14.27

    Total variable cost per unit 236.13

    total cost = (236.13*21000) + 945,000+295,000+148,000+192,000=$ 6,538,730.00

    Total costs of 21,000 units = $6,538,730.00

    cost per unit=$6,538,730.00/21000=$ 311.37
